The South Nottinghamshire Community Safety Partnership works in conjunction with the Broxtowe Borough Partnership.

Community Safety covers a broad spread of issues for the local community, from reducing crime and anti social behaviour to providing CCTV and security services at locations across the Borough.

The Communities Team works to address these issues in communities across Broxtowe. The team also helps to run the South Nottinghamshire Community Safety Partnership and works closely with other organisations such as the Police to plan a strategic approach that will help to tackle community safety issues across the Borough.

The main areas of work covered by the Communities Team include:

Working with partners to reduce crime

Co-ordinating domestic abuse services

Supporting drug and alcohol awareness and diversionary activities

Investigating and enforcing anti-social behaviour

Raising awareness of and reducing hate crime

Reducing risk and safeguarding vulnerable people
